The Epistolarian with Kathryn Hastings
In this episode of The Radiance Project, Heidi sits down with artist, writer, and modern keeper of the epistolary arts, Kathryn Hastings. Through her studio, Kathryn Hastings & Co., Kathryn creates heirloom wax seals designed to last for at least 300 years. Each seal is crafted as fine art — merging historic tools, time-honored symbolism, and meticulous innovation.  Kathryn reimagines tools of devotion and communication for modern life and generations to come. Her work has been featured on the cover of Victoria Magazine, and in Veranda, Grazia, and The Art of Correspondence. She is also the host of the podcast One Sealed Letter, where she explores the history and enduring relevance of handwritten expression. In this conversation, Heidi and Kathryn explore: The sacred slowing down of handwriting Why permanence matters in a disposable age The beauty of excellence and refinement in daily ritual The power of objects that outlive us And how artistry becomes devotion Astrologically speaking, Kathryn is a Virgo Sun, Virgo Moon, and Taurus Rising — an earthy trinity of devotion, craftsmanship, and embodiment. And with Venus in Libra in the 6th house, refinement becomes love made visible. For more on Kathryn: @kathrynhastingsco, kathrynhastingsco.com  Follow Heidi: @heidiroserobbins, heidirose.com

The Work That Becomes Love
In this episode, Heidi reflects on spaciousness, commitment, and the emotional weather of our times. After a week of meeting new clients and preparing to begin a six-month class herself, she explores what it means to grow over time — and how rest, creativity, and community become lifelines in seasons of collective intensity. We are being asked to carry more than we can always name. And yet, through astrology, poetry, and the steady work of love, mountains can move. This episode weaves together current astrological shifts, stories of unity and peace, and three powerful poems that remind us of impermanence, devotion, and hope. Heidi closes with a reminder that this is not a time to go silent. This is a time to create. To love. To show up. In This Episode: Creating spaciousness without guilt Emotional processing in a rapidly shifting world Community as medicine The Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Aries + eclipse season (and workshop!)
